Re: The new somatic symptom disorder in DSM-5 risks mislabeling many people as mentally ill
The National CFIDS Foundation is immenssly concerned sbout the damage and erroneous mislabeling that will be the effect of the new DSM-5. Patients already have a great deal of trouble trying to be correctly diagnosed and the DSM-5 has neglected to recognize all the scientific proof that has been fully replicated within recent years. The publication of the DSM-5 will be harmful to many. It ignores "First, do no harm."
